Arguing that Obama shouldn't be the nominee because of racial exit poll statistics

[LoZoccolo]

is flatly racist and a perpetuation of other peoples' racism.

Maybe we should start a thread on another board where we can include links to all the racist threads and responses on this board, so we know who's a coward wannabe liberal who capitulates to other peoples' racism.

1. Great suggestion!

[Bright Eyes]

2. Agreed. Wholeheartedly.

K&R

Thinly disguised racism is still racism.

[joshcryer]

3. What if one says he couldn't be, because of these statistics?

[LoZoccolo]

9. They would have to explain Iowa and Nevada.

And since they wouldn't be able to, it would probably be racist.

[Kittycat]

4. You sound like an idiot.

[Guaranteed]

I'm going to have to say no, he doesn't.

Maybe he could have put it better, but what he is saying is extremely important.

[LoZoccolo]

12. I sound like an idiot with three recommendations.

Ka-ching.

[JVS]

35. 5 now

:thumbsup:

[EFerrari]

13. No, he doesn't. He's exactly right. n/t

[JVS]

34. Sometimes he does, like when he's saying "dooga dooga dooga" but this is not one of those times

He's got a really good point in this thread.

5. MLK would roll over in his grave

apparently the black voters in SC did not vote on the content of his character but on the color of his skin.

[stillcool]

8. That is disgusting...

[Bright Eyes]

11. Link?

Back up your assertion.

[EFerrari]

15. Heaven forbid the black community should support the black community.

[Barack_America]

21. I cannot wait for the Ignore option to be reinstated...

So I no longer have to read the shit that you post.

That is the most tasteless, callous post of the night.

[Evergreen Emerald]

29. I think it is tasteless and callous to call Clinton racist to win votes

I think it s tasteless and callous to use race to win an election: dividing while pretending to be a uniter.

I think that MLK wanted people to be judged on their character and not their color.

I think your post is useless. And I cannot wait tell you put me on Ignore so I don't have to listen to your faux outrage.

[Barack_America]

33. If you think this, you might want to reconsider which campaign you support. n/t

[KittyWampus]

22. exit polls prove you wrong.

[tammywammy]

30. Really?

Link please? Did you ask each black voter why they were voting for Obama? I mean, damn, it couldn't possibly be because they think he's the better candidate?

Are you equally upset with any white woman that votes for Hillary? Or white male for Edwards?

[gmudem]

32. And you know this how?

Way to look like an ass.

[JustinL]

40. what about 2004?

How do you explain Al Sharpton coming in third behind Edwards and Kerry among African-Americans in the South Carolina primary? Have the mindsets of black voters in South Carolina changed that much in 4 years?

6. Usually I hate your posts, LoZo.

But this time, you are absolutely correct. That racists would be more likely to vote for a white person should not dissuade us from nominating the right person for the Presidency.

[sandnsea]

7. It's being going on for weeks

I get beat over the head for calling it racist, but it is. Anybody who says we can't elect either Hillary or Obama due to race or gender - is being racist. It needs to stop.

[Bonobo]

10. Obama is such a uniter, he brought ME and LOZO together! THAT is an achievement! nt

[Guaranteed]

16. LOL and me as well nt

[EFerrari]

17. And me! I'm marking my damn calendar!

lol

[JVS]

39. I know how you feel

[mrreowwr_kittty]

14. Actually, the exit polls bode very well for him

He got 24% of the white vote, which was more than twice what some polls predicted. Clinton and Edwards split the remainder.

[nonconformist]

18. Funny, because I see it more as a harsh reality re: winning in November

As they say, it is what it is.

[EFerrari]

27. He matched Hillary white male for white male.

It is what it is.

[nonconformist]

28. So? I think both of them will lose. I'm an Edwards supporter.

But that doesn't change the fact that these numbers underscore why Obama, specifically, can't win in November.

[EFerrari]

31. That's some funny math you got there.

:)

[liberalmuse]

19. I agree. Man, I've read some stupid shit on this board tonight.

I had to laugh when I saw the statistics posted along with the conclusions drawn by so many "experts" (i.e.--people who are rooting for someone other than Obama, apparently).

[billbuckhead]

20. And who is a sexist wannabe liberal who won't support women and gays?

[LoZoccolo]

23. Your mama.

Your mama is one of those.

[billbuckhead]

24. Here's looking at you

[Bright Eyes]

25. ?

What?

[Guaranteed]

26. Bill Clinton? nt

[JVS]

41. Shaft!

Oh wait no. That's answer to a different question

[greyghost]

36. Grow up.

[Tulkas]

37. We need to keep talking about IOWA

98% white vote

2% black vote


Obama takes first place
Clinton finishes third (in a 3 horse race)

[mzmolly]

38. Not to mention exit polls show him doing well among white men.

He and Hillary are split 50/50 in SC according to MSNBC?
